Who knows.:confused:
There's more to these conversions than plain drag racing.
Only 1 APR kit over here, on LHD ex-Awesome Gti car of Jim Cottons.
~300bhp and times are in PVW magazine's timed runs.
USA guys get good power from APR stage III

Bill,
Am I right in saying that the StageIII dosnt fit on our RHD's
due to differences between LHD and RHD??
aye tis true russell, downpipes get in the way of steering column (or vice versa)
:)
Yep, I enquired about the APR stage 3 many moons ago and was told it wont fit a RHD car. :(
Can't wait for the IHI though. :D

@BenS1
Can you tell me what do you mean with RHD? Ist this on which side is the driver, because I also play with idea to buy me a APR STAGE III for my Leon.
Thanks

RHD = Right hand drive
LHD = Left hand drive
ie RHD is where the driver sits on the right (backseat driver not withstanding)
Surely when you get over 300 bhp it comes down to traction - so another 50bhp may well have little difference whilst a decent chassis setup, diff and tyres may do
Thus, perhaps on equivalent cars, may be little difference in overall performance.
Of course if you already have the decent car setup that may actually start to put down the power, the power starts to count....

yes only for LHD cars at present :(
although we're shipping a RHD car to APR to develop a kit :)
is there any major difference in the engine compartment between LHD & RHD ??? :confused:

You can send them mine if you want... call it a sponsored developement car. You give me 300bhp+ and I'll let you put an APR sticker on my car, sounds fair to me! ;) :D
